Brian K. and others,
The only thing I am trying to get across to all the MB owners, is that the owners manual states "there are a number of antifreeze/coolants available which will provide the requisite(required)protection as the Mercedes-Benz antifreeze agent." I don't care which brand of antifreeze you use. Go back and read your owners manual. If you don't have the owners manual, contact your dealer. Our local dealer used to give them to me. And I do have a stack of them.
The way I understand what the manual states about antifreeze is that we can use just about any brand of antifreeze we choose, as long as it provides the requisite (required) protection.
Who knows maybe I will convert to Zerex. It's orange in color, which just happens to be the color of my alma mater; The University of Tennessee...
